so what got mestarted on this "journey," besides the sooo cool blogs of tab and crystal, waswhat i'm posting first. i'm currently inintro to american government at mott. since i don't reallycare for politics, it's not the best time for me to take on thisCHALLENGE!!!

so i sit each day listening to some of our societies young people. i mustadmit, most in my class are what we call"liberals."they want their parents, the government, their bosses and everyone else to give them any and all personal freedoms they desire...without consequence!so i started thinking......when did words like "boundaries," "rules," and "restrictions" becomebadwords???

so i turned to mr. webster for some answers to insight.......

boundaries- something that indicates or fixes a limit or extent.so would the opposite be having NO limits or extents to which one would go?

rules- a prescribed guide for conduct or action.so would the opposite be having NO guide to lead you or your actions?

restrictions- to confine within bounds.so would the opposite be having NO boundaries?

my point being is that these areGREATwords when used correctly and we need to make sure as parents, leaders and teachers that we instill the immense value they have in our younger generation so they don't end up opposing them at every turn just for the sake of doing so.
